"For the classroom and for the general reader, there’s no better way to experience the context in which Jane Eyre was written, illuminating modern commentary, and the novel itself in an authoritative text.” Fred kaplan, Queens College and The Graduate Center, City University of New York

Emily Brontë (1818–48) was only twenty-seven years old when she began work on one of the most important novels in the English language. It took the world almost a century to catch up to Wuthering Heights, and it has taken even longer to know Brontë—an elusive figure, with a ghostly legacy marred by the loss (and likely destruction) of almost all her personal papers. Drawing on formerly inaccessible notebooks and manuscripts, Deborah Lutz constructs a portrait of Brontë, her famous writing sisters Charlotte and Anne, and the family’s tragic deaths against the texture of Brontë’s days as a woman both tending a Victorian household and crafting otherworldly fiction. Lutz traces Brontë’s passions from her animal menagerie to her beloved moors as she honed her fantastical poems and transcendent novel. This Dark Night plumbs the life and writing of this idiosyncratic woman, dark soul, and monumental genius.

'Compelling' -- Spectator A NEW YORK TIMES EDITORS PICK'A wonderful book' -- GuardianThe author of Wuthering Heights is brought back to life in this stormy biography set amongst the wild moors of Yorkshire.Emily Jane Brontë was just 27 when she started writing the wayward and electric novel Wuthering Heights. Three years later, she was dead. Out of step with her own time and remembered as the strangest of the Brontë sisters, there's much that we don't know about her — most of her papers were destroyed after her death. But as Deborah Lutz explores in this, one of the first biographies of Emily in 20 years, the writing that has survived seethes with storm and strife and with the beautifully desolate landscape of Yorkshire.Drawing on a vast quantity of unexplored archival materials, Deborah reconstructs the texture of Emily Brontë's days, bringing us closer to one of the greatest and fiercest writers we have, by showing us her creative process and her confidence in her strange art.Featuring illuminating insights into her poems and private writings, This Dark Night takes us inside the world of Emily's irrepressible spirit and wild imagination.

This book shows how authors in nineteenth-century Britain used the materials of writing (and of reading, drawing, and handicraft) for inspiration and creative composition. In doing so, it reshapes the sensory history of working on and with paper. These activities were many and varied: Charlotte Brontë composed poems and doodled in the margins of school books, George Eliot recorded writing ideas on her blotter, Elizabeth Barrett Browning sewed paper to paper to edit her poems, and Jane Austen employed straight pins to "cut and paste." Albums provided a playful space to collect and to produce text-and-collage gifts for friends, circumventing print culture for a more intimate book making, as Elizabeth Gaskell and Anna Atkins knew. Notebooks and commonplace books were vital to Eliot, Michael Field, and Emily Brontë as part of a writing process. Writers experimented with crafts and needlework to compose text without paper and ink, most notably in the case of samplers. What writing and drawing happened on--including bibles, sewing patterns, and walls--mattered, as related to, and generative of, the themes of the work. This expansive field of meanings that creativity with textual (and material) things could have was common to the Victorians, but the writers explored here were extravagant even among their self-reflexive contemporaries in their undoing, remaking, miniaturizing, encrypting, reusing, and transforming. The edge of the page, the width of the margin, the covers of the book, were limiting factors, but also provocations to push on further, be radical.

At the height of the Victorian era, a daring group of artists and thinkers defied the reigning obsession with propriety, testing the boundaries of sexual decorum in their lives and in their work. Dante Gabriel Rossetti exhumed his dead wife to pry his only copy of a manuscript of his poems from her coffin. Legendary explorer Richard Burton wrote how-to manuals on sex positions and livened up the drawing room with stories of eroticism in the Middle East. Algernon Charles Swinburne visited flagellation brothels and wrote pornography amid his poetry. By embracing and exploring the taboo, these iconoclasts produced some of the most captivating art, literature, and ideas of their day. As thought-provoking as it is electric, Pleasure Bound unearths the desires of the men and women who challenged buttoned-up Victorian mores to promote erotic freedom. These bohemians formed two loosely overlapping societies—the Cannibal Club and the Aesthetes—to explore their fascinations with sexual taboo, from homosexuality to the eroticization of death. Known as much for their flamboyant personal lives as for their controversial masterpieces, they created a scandal-provoking counterculture that paved the way for such later figures as Gustav Klimt, Virginia Woolf, and Jean Genet. In this stunning exposé of the Victorian London we thought we knew, Deborah Lutz takes us beyond the eyebrow-raising practices of these sex rebels, revealing how they uncovered troubles that ran beneath the surface of the larger social fabric: the struggle for women’s emancipation, the dissolution of formal religions, and the pressing need for new forms of sexual expression.

The story of the Brontës is told through the things they wore, stitched, wrote on and inscribed at the parsonage in Haworth. From Charlotte’s writing desk and the manuscripts it contained to the brass collar worn by Emily’s dog, Keeper, each object opens a window onto the sisters’ world, their fiction and the Victorian era. By unfolding the histories of the things they used, the chapters form a chronological biography of the family. A walking stick evokes Emily’s solitary hikes on the moors and the stormy heath—itself a character in Wuthering Heights. Charlotte’s bracelet containing Anne and Emily’s intertwined hair gives voice to her grief over their deaths. These possessions pull us into their daily lives: the imaginary kingdoms of their childhood writing, their time as governesses and their stubborn efforts to make a mark on the world.

About Emily Brontë’s Wuthering Heights:“It is as if [Brontë] could tear up all that we know human beings by, and fill these unrecognisable transparencies with such a gust of life that they transcend reality. Hers, then, is the rarest of all powers. She could free life from its dependence on facts; with a few touches indicate the spirit of a face so that it needs no body; by speaking of the moor make the wind blow and the thunder roar.” —Virginia Woolf

Nineteenth-century Britons treasured objects of daily life that had once belonged to their dead. The love of these keepsakes, which included hair, teeth, and other remains, speaks of an intimacy with the body and death, a way of understanding absence through its materials, which is less widely felt today. Deborah Lutz analyzes relic culture as an affirmation that objects held memories and told stories. These practices show a belief in keeping death vitally intertwined with life - not as memento mori but rather as respecting the singularity of unique beings. In a consumer culture in full swing by the 1850s, keepsakes of loved ones stood out as non-reproducible, authentic things whose value was purely personal. Through close reading of the works of Charles Dickens, Emily Brontë, Alfred Lord Tennyson, Thomas Hardy, and others, this study illuminates the treasuring of objects that had belonged to or touched the dead.

In der Pädagogik für Menschen mit komplexen Behinderungen haben sich weltweit vielfältige und innovative Ansätze entwickelt. Diese internationalen Perspektiven finden im deutschsprachigen Raum bislang jedoch nur wenig Beachtung - nationale Entwicklungen und Denkansätze dominieren die Fachdiskussion. Der vorliegende Sammelband setzt hier an und macht internationale Diskurse und Modelle für den deutschsprachigen Raum sichtbar und nutzbar.Im Zentrum steht der interdisziplinäre Austausch: Die Beiträge renommierter Autor:innen aus verschiedenen Ländern bieten fundierte Einblicke in Forschungstraditionen, Begrifflichkeiten und Menschenbilder, die die jeweiligen pädagogischen Ansätze prägen. Durch die Übersetzung und kontextuelle Bearbeitung werden diese vielfältigen Zugänge einem breiteren Publikum zugänglich gemacht. Ziel ist es, neue Impulse für Theorie und Praxis zu geben sowie zur Reflexion der eigenen pädagogischen Arbeit anzuregen.Der Sammelband gliedert sich in fünf thematische Schwerpunkte mit insgesamt 21 Beiträgen. Die Abschnitte "Die Person verstehen", "Die Person in ihrem Umfeld verstehen", "Möglichkeiten der Verständigung" und "Mit der Welt im Austausch sein" bieten eine systematische Annäherung an die komplexen Lebenslagen von Menschen mit Behinderungen. Den Abschluss bildet ein konzeptioneller Ausblick, der in Form eines Forschungsplans Perspektiven für zukünftige wissenschaftliche und praktische Entwicklungen eröffnet.Die Publikation richtet sich an Fachpersonen in Wissenschaft, Lehre und Praxis, die sich mit Menschen mit komplexen Behinderungen befassen - etwa in der Sonder- und Heilpädagogik, Behindertenhilfe, Sozialen Arbeit, Inklusionsforschung oder Pflegepädagogik. Der Band liefert Anregungen für Forschung und Professionalisierung ebenso wie für die Weiterentwicklung pädagogischer Konzepte.Durch die internationale Perspektive und die systematische Aufarbeitung zentraler Themenbereiche leistet der Sammelband einen wertvollen Beitrag zur Weiterentwicklung der Pädagogik für Menschen mit komplexen Behinderungen und eröffnet neue Perspektiven für Forschung und Praxis.
